Anton Bitel, Eye for Film
Tsutsumi...dazzles us with so many balls in the air, so many twists and turns, that there is not enough room left for his characters to develop as believable, interesting people, as opposed to comicbook archetypes.

Sean Axmaker, Seanax.com
Not quite science fiction and as surreal a conspiratorial epic as you'll find, this dense thriller has a distinctively Japanese sensibility.
-
Sarah Boslaugh, Playback:stl
...has that crazy mix of genres and conventions which you often find in Japanese film and has the added benefit of not taking itself too seriously.
-
Edward Porter, Sunday Times (UK)
We're being reminded of the banality of evil, but that only slightly raises the IQ of Yukihiko Tsutsumi's film.

Philip French, Observer [UK]
The dramatic premise is ingenious and there are two future lengthy episodes to come. But I was often baffled.
